<h2>Bungee View text search syntax</h2>

<p>Entering a set of keywords matches items that contain <i>any</i> of those
keywords, in any of the item's metadata.  Text searches are not case-sensitive; in other words, capitalization is ignored.</p>

<p>To search for items containing <i>all</i> words, put '+' in front of each word (or enter each word one at a
time and type enter).</p>

<p>To search for items <i>not</i> containing a word, put '-' in front of the word. (You must have at least one word that doesn't have a '-' in front of it, though.)</p>

<p>You can add a wildcard at the end of a sequence of letters.  For example, 'bun*' will match 'bun', 'buns', or 'bungee'.</p>

<p>You can search for a phrase by putting it in quotation marks, for example "grand canyon".</p>

<p>For more details, see <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-boolean.html">the complete documentation for MySQL Boolean Mode searches</a>.</p>
